In an interview with Judge Haynes. formerly one cf the prominent attorneys of Tucson but now of Los Angeles, he expressed the uuqu slitisd opinion that SoutbeTn Arizonn would in the near fu- tnre sxperleuce a substantial boom but little. if st al, b5hIDd that which Is upon Southern California. He said that now A great many ca apitalisss of Califor- nia, who had witnessed the remarkRoie advance ID prices of real estate there, are making serious inquiries Tor cheap lands with water available for irrigation, and have settled upon Southern Arl- zons as the best and most available h6ld for the most profitable investments. II .s. indeed, the wonder of all who have become tO the smallest extent acquaInt- ed wi.h the immense HreRs of fine soll m Southern ATiz ma, it's unsurpassed sdsplabillty to the c1iture of fruit and other products and the ualimIted sup ply of water which may be made avail sblo for irrigation, that msny of the thousands who have heretofore sought homes and the profitable investment O. capital OF the Pacific coast should have overlooked 3his really most desirable saetion. The now cheap but fertile lands of Arizona posscss lH the sivan- tRgcs and elements of desirability pos sssssd by any portion of California and the clirnate has no superior for mIldness and salubr.ty. For iruit-rsising this section possesses aiyantages over any other section in tine United States.
 Ibera IS absolutely no obstacle that can prevent the lands of Arizona from eventually attaining hs active demand nov attending California real estate. This will follow immediately the u;iliZs- ton of the various bodies of water now available. The time is not far distan. when tbis will be done, and those who voal avail themsslyssnt the opportunity of heap lands that will in the not re- mote subsequent command bonsnzl prices or be u lasting source of wealth from fruit culture. would do we'll to move in the matter at once.-Sentinel.

Bur few people in Arizona are aware Of the intimacy existing between Gov. Zulick and President Cleveland. Nor do they kuow that the nineteen inch collar of the democracy draws much of his inspiration from our own thick waisted official. Such, however, is. to say the least, partially the case. When it was decided to present General Miles with a sword, ss a testimonial of the good will entertained for him by Ari- zonians. the committee having the affair in charge most courteously requested Governor ZChck's recognition and CO., operation, but not only did he not dO so but he had not sufficient courtesy 10 give them an answer. President Cleve- land desirous of emulsting our Chief Magistrate, has similarly snubbed Gov. Forsker, who, in the name of the peo- pie of Ohio, .'Eited bim to visit the city of Columbus during his western tour. Is this s coincidence of great minds running in the same chsnnel. or is this way of doing business the heIghth of Democratic diplomacy?
